it was npr that we did as a story and started a national attention. there was the worry that i can see where people who are conservative might decide that they want to support me. there are most familiar with this idea that if you say the wrong thing you might be subjected to the charge of bigotry, racism. but i wonder how the lessons of the country's political spectrum might react? could this be an opportunity to simply jump on? so it was a big surprise to me when people like whoopi goldberg, john stuart, and even sarah palin on the far right, agreed that what had taken place was really out of bounds. since this controversy broke, as i have told you, people everywhere say to me, you know, i understand what it is to feel that you can't speak in this country today and tell me that they feel that there is too much in coded speech, political correctness, and that it is being enforced by political parties, lobbying groups, advocacy groups, political correctness that is used to enforce identity, a group identity in this country. it is used to raise money.
